Abstract
An assembly is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This assembly includes a compressor section, a combustor section, a turbine section, a flowpath, a tail cone structure, an electric machine and an electric fan. The flowpath includes a flowpath inlet and a flowpath exhaust. The flowpath extends through the compressor section, the combustor section and the turbine section from the flowpath inlet to the flowpath exhaust. The tail cone structure forms an inner peripheral boundary of the flowpath at the flowpath exhaust. The tail cone structure includes an internal volume and an outlet fluidly coupled with the internal volume. The electric machine is disposed within the internal volume. The electric fan is configured to flow air within the internal volume such that the air cools the electric machine and is exhausted from the tail cone structure through the outlet.
